Chain-free second-floor retirement apartment with riverside location, lift access and residents' facilities.
Second-floor retirement flat, chain free
Set on the second floor of Watersedge Court, this chain-free, one-bedroom retirement apartment suits a 60+ buyer seeking low-mobility living close to the Thames. The wide 23ft reception room leads to a kitchen and a spacious double bedroom with fitted wardrobes; the shower room is accessible. The building includes a scheme manager, emergency call system, lift, residents' lounge, laundry, guest suite and communal parking. Water is included in the service charge and the EPC is rated B.
Practical points are clear: heating is by electric storage heaters and the kitchen fittings are dated, so some updating would improve comfort and efficiency. Broadband speeds are reported slow. Annual costs include a service charge of about £2,872 and a ground rent of £773. The lease has around 102 years remaining.
Location benefits include nearby shops and amenities, landscaped grounds and relatively quick rail links into central London from Erith station. Buyers should note the local area is classified as deprived with very high crime levels, so viewings should consider personal safety and community suitability. The managing agent will meet prospective residents to assess suitability prior to occupancy.
